Anyone having trouble getting Avastin?

I am considering all my options right now. When I asked my onc about adding Avastin to either Xeloda or dropping Xeloda and doing Avastin/Tykerb; the answer was no. I know some have had success on Avastin so I would like to give it a try. If the FDA does pull it, will we still be able to get it in trials?

My biopsy was yesterday and surprisingly I slept through it. I guess they gave me a nice dosage of happy drugs.
